Is there any killer where you prefer thana over the meta slowdown?

Meta Slowdown: Pop, Ruin, Corrupt Intervention

Its the same question from yesterday with thanatophobia instead of surge.

So when you only have one slot left, do you use thana on a killer? And when yes, why? Or do you use thana only as combo with other slowdown perks?

I used Thana on Legion, Plague and Wraith. But even on this killer which have a power synergy or a hit and run playstyle i think the meta slowdown is stronger. So i use thana not as sole slowdown anymore. Even on killers where i run sloppy, which has synergy with thana, i prefer to use pop.

    I mean, you are correct about meta slowdown being stronger, it's meta for a reason. That being said, Thana is a viable perk, and against most teams you really don't need the best perks in order to win,

    I'm the exact same as you. Legion, Plague and Wraith. Wraith does have better perks personally but that doesn't necessarily mean it's bad, while it's great on Legion and Plague as you and I both know.

    Thana is only worth using on legion and plague imo. They'll the only killers where you'll see the max stacks take effect.

    Hag or Twins.

    A lot of people will tell you it's good on Plague, but it's a trap. It'll only be useful until the cleansing party and then you're just running Thanat on a 115 Huntress. If you need a perk to get people to not want to stay injured, something is going very wrong.

    My build for nurse right now is Thana, Dying light, Surge, Infectious. Will swap dying light for Corrupt when it shows up in my web tho.

    Used to be great running when it had a healing debuff, now that's gone and applies to totem cleansing now..

    I use it on twins. Don't know why but survivors are almost always injured when I use twins. Not even sure why.

    Blight.

    He's good at spreading damage and since forced penance applies to his lethal rush for some reason, he's very good at applying passive slowdown.

    Legion and Plague, pretty much.

    Def Legion, maybe plague if you want survivors to focus on cleansing.
